Unless your favorite breweries do something strange with their cans, there should be no flavor downsides to using a can. In fact, a can protects a beer from skunking since it keeps out all light! Some green-bottled beers can benefit from slight skunking, but other than those, I go cans all the way.

Not for me. My waist is anywhere from 38 inches if I’m slouching (27.8% body fat) to 34 inches when I’m sucking it in (19.3% body fat). That’s a huge range, and the site doesn’t give any tips to how to measure yourself, so I can see a lot of people screwing this up.

Complete Nutrition. For the life of me, I can’t find anywhere on their webpage where they advertise the InBody testing machine. It may be that not all stores have them, but my local one does. I’d suggest calling lots of supplement stores near you to find out, including GNC as whiskertriscuit suggested.

You can track your body fat and muscle weight for free, if you know where to go. There’s a nutritional supplement store (read: protein powder everywhere) near me that has an InBody machine. You take off your socks and step on two electrodes, then grab one more with each hand. After about 30 seconds you get your…

Might work for cornichons!

Sleep Cycle on iOS. It sits under your pillow (or in my case, under the fitted sheet) and tracks movement as a way to determine what phase of sleep you’re in.

I have a sleep tracker that allows me to add “sleep notes” and compare the quality of my sleep based on the sleep notes. Some things have a huge impact (staying up late, napping in the mid-afternoon hurt my sleep, exercising helps my sleep) but drinking before bed has no impact for me. It’s a 1% increase in sleep…

When I bought a house and needed a wheelbarrow, I checked out the Worx Aerocart. Popular reviews seem to suggest that it’s a jack of all trades, master of none type of deal. Super small wheelbarrow capacity. The only thing that seemed worthwhile is the net/crane function, though in the year since that time I can’t say…

The purpose of this article is to help RELIEVE stress for people who are already healthy (picky) eaters. At least, that’s what I gather from the introduction:

I find that snacks in the car tend to go stale due to the car staying in the sun/heat all day, so this is what I do:

Buy a large bag of almonds and a small tin of almonds. Keep the tin in your car and refill it from the large bag, which you keep in your house or work so it stays cool!

FYI, if you live near a Publix, check it out. I saw one of these for $60 there two days ago. Because I love my Griddler, and I always vouch for it, I noticed it.

Sorry if this cuts into Gawker’s referral revenue, but hey use their link to get the waffle plates. They’re fantastic!

I’m assuming you can partially cover with a lid to get the same effect? Seems needless to waste parchment when I’ve got lids for my pans already...

We taught them to students when I was a teacher :)

Hahaha. We just had BLTs for dinner, with bacon-style tempeh as an experiment. I think we’ll stick with normal bacon from now on :P

I have an older model of this, and it’s my go-to “large gift” for people (graduation, housewarming, etc). It’s fantastic as described, but you can also buy WAFFLE PLATES for it, so you don’t have to have a whole different device!

Also, the plates are all dishwasher safe, so that’s nice.

This is fantastic on bread meant for sandwiches, too. BLTs, caprese, grilled cheese, pimiento, and feta+roasted eggplant sandwiches are all delicious with garlic-rubbed bread, in my experience.

You’ll be surprised how much a packed sandwich lunch is elevated when you toast the bread and rub on the garlic just before…

Stainless steel knobs can resist even higher heat, and are safe to use with the broiler setting as well.

This deal sadly appears to be dead. Is there a promo code I’m missing?

How do you figure?

Best falafel I’ve ever made is from Yottom Ottolenghi’s book Jerusalem. They’re absolutely amazing fried, and now that you’ve brought it up I’m going to try them on my griddler waffle plates!

Here’s someone’s transcription (adaptation?) from the book: http://mykentuckyhome-kim.blogspot.com/2013/06/yotam-…
